TV watchers, in tuneup for the Ryder Cup, sets their sights on Ohio’s smoking ban

By Tangotiger, 06:38 PM

Do-gooders are among us. Be afraid.

Impressionable utes weren’t the only ones watching when Cincinnati Reds owner Bob Castellini (right) passed out victory cigars and then lit up after his team clinched the NL Central title at Great American Ball Park on Tuesday.

Also watching at home on television were at least five whistle blowers who noted that the Reds were violating Ohio’s indoor smoking ban. They called Cincinnati’s health department to report the team and now the Cincinnati Enquirer reports the club is under investigation.

"Think of this place as something like a college classroom. We’re in charge, we pick the topics, we set the rules, and we try to foster as much intelligent discourse as possible. If this isn't your cup of tea, there are plenty of other sites out there for you to try—we're not going to be for everybody, and we're not going to try to appeal to the masses." —USSM
